Chart
Kairi Consultants Limited was formed in 1990 and became a
limited liability company in 1992 under the laws of Trinidad
and Tobago. The company operates from its headquarters in
Tunapuna, Republic of Trinidad and Tobago, West Indies. Its
guiding principle is to provide the best services available
to its clientele by tapping the most qualified specialists
in the areas of its clients’ needs.
The firm offers consultancy services for research and
management of all projects related to the development
process. Its particular areas of expertise include Social
Sector Development, Environment and Natural Resource
Management, Agriculture, Human Resource Development,
Training/Education, Finance and Investment, and
International Trade. In these areas, it can handle both
small- and large-scale projects.
Given the dynamic nature of the development process, the
firm’s services also include on-the-site, interactive
approaches in promoting development, mainly in the form of
training programmes, seminars and workshops, in its various
areas of expertise.
Hence, the major function of Kairi Consultants Limited is
to provide technical assistance to organisations and to
developing countries using an integrated and/or
multi-disciplinary approach.
The organisational structure of the firm is based on a
system of principal and associate membership. The principal
members of Kairi Consultants Limited form the managerial
Board of Directors. This Board is made up of experienced
professionals from varied fields. However, their experience
and expertise go beyond their university training and other
academic endeavours. At one time or another (and even
currently), they have either worked in the public and
private sectors in the Caribbean or have been attached as
consultants to, or employees of, major Caribbean and/or
international organisations. They are well placed to access
the latest in research and technological advances. They also
have the experience of adapting these advances to local
conditions thereby creating an unbeatable blend between
knowledge and expertise.
Kairi Consultants Limited also has a growing list of
committed associate members and associate companies. Their
expertise and knowledge complement that of the core group,
which manages all projects undertaken.
The key personnel of Kairi Consultants Limited have
undertaken many projects in Caribbean countries, which range
from high to low income developing nations. Some have also
worked outside the region in countries of Latin America,
Western Europe, Africa, Asia and the Pacific. Thus, the firm
is confident that it can effectively provide its expertise
to all parts of the developing world and in particular, the
Caribbean.
